This lightweight iron from Black & Decker is hands down the best iron I've ever owned, and believe me, I've owned a few. The bottom is simply polished metal rather than some non-stick, Teflon-like material, which means that the iron gets really hot for all those cotton and linen things that require intense heat. And it has two handy buttons on top, one for a burst of steam, and one for a shot of water. Perhaps my favorite feature, however, is the automatic shut-off. It's comforting to know that if I wander off and leave it on, the iron, which is a bit less forgetful than I am, will turn itself off.

i have this iron, unfortunately it recently fell to the floor, and steamed my hard wood floor. its now ruined. but i loved that iron, i quilt and sew and that iron glides like ice and steams hot in seconds, i've never had an iron that heated up so quickly. i just wish it didn't come on by itself when tipped, a nice feature if you want to leave it on all day and just iron when you need it, an awful feature if you have kids. hence my present conundrum.
